  Remove

1.   Remove camshaft housing cover LUREF_1.gif
2.   Remove 4x injector (1)
Note:   Mark 4x injector.
Important:   If when removing an injector, the heat insulation sleeve (5) is also drawn out, the gaskets (3) must be replaced and the heat insulation sleeve knocked into the cylinder head using KM-6357 (4).

  Inspect

4.   Turn crankshaft
•   Turn crankshaft until cam pairs (1) and (2) point upwards
5.   Check valve clearance
•   Using feeler gauge
Note:   The valve play is checked on a cold engine – room temperature.
Test values: Intake valves/Exhaust valves (0.35 – 0.45 mm)
6.   Adjust valve clearance
•   Turn cup tappet until tappet groove points outwards
Important:   Make sure that the valves are not set when the piston is in "TDC". The valves could strike the piston head
•   Press down cup tappets
Note:   Note different tool versions for intake and exhaust valves
Use KM-6090
Mark – IN = Intake side
Mark – EX = Exhaust side
•   Remove adjustment shim

7.   Example for determination of shim thickness:

1. Thickness of installed shim

3.15 mm

2. Measurement between cam and cup tappets

+ 0.45 mm

 

= 3.60 mm

3. Nominal valve clearance

- 0.40 mm

8.   Insert adjustment shim
•   Coat new shim (7) with engine oil and insert in cup tappet with identification mark facing downwards
9.   Turn crankshaft
•   In direction of engine rotation by 180°
Check and adjust valve pair (6) and (2)
•   In direction of engine rotation by 180°
Check and adjust valve pair (5) and (3)
•   In direction of engine rotation by 180°
Check and adjust valve pair (4) and (1)
Note:   The clearance of all adjusted valves must be re-checked

Object Number: 2413404  Size: DEFAULT


15.   Fasten accumulator
•   Tighten 2x bolts 25 Nm
16.   Remove 4x accumulator high pressure lines at injectors
•   Unscrew 8 union nuts
•   Seal off connections of accumulator using suitable sealing plugs
•   Seal off connections of injectors with protective caps
17.   Install camshaft housing cover LUREF_1.gif
